    Honestly I was not holding out much hope that they could make enough changes to make me excited to play again, but these new items really have that "oh wow" factor that has been lacking with the itemization in general.

    This coupled with the class changes / buffs to lesser used skills has me really excited to play again.

    I think I am going to go hardcore in 1.0.4.

    Might have cared about this if I had not stopped playing a month after release. I like to talk myself into thinking this game is / was better than it is by telling myself that it is just unrealistic expectations born from waiting 10 years for a sequal, but the honest fact is its just not very fun past the first playthrough, the itemization and lack of real concrete character choices is boring as hell, and the interface and lack of social features just does not seem to be very polished at all.

    I think they ruined the game for the sake of Accessibility.
    I am hoping the legendary patch / hardcore playing or maybe PVP will make me want to log back in to play my single player game but lets not hold our breath.

    I think D3 needs a major expansion and overhaul to make it even semi fun.

    I actually envy you a little bit, there were times I wish I had been able to go into a medically induced coma while waiting for this game to launch :)

    Post launch its good but not great, got my money's worth already I'd say (over 120 hours played since launch). So anything now I get is pretty much just gravy.

    If I ever buy anything from it, then I will for sure wait for a few weeks until it have settled.
    Current items for 250 dollars....just makes me wanna laugh.

    there are items which are sold for over 700€ (1190$) at ebay. wouldnt hope "too" much, top notch items will remain unbelievable expensive, mediocre items will probably become pretty cheap (20-50€, which are 34-85$).
    best example
    http://www.ebay.de/i...9#ht_560wt_1396 (auction is over, so there is no problem with linking it)
    what amazing sword!!! Really lucky the guy who got it!
    Its incredible how people can spend the amount of money to feed a whole family on a single game equipment.

    Crazy ass weapon, probably be best in slot until the expansion.

    What is this "build diversity" they speak of? It clearly doesn't exist for DH inferno. O_O
    You change one rune on the same skill and bam! 2 different builds. even though they play the same :P

    There is plenty of build diversity, you just lack the creativity and imagination to come up with any.

    posted a message on Servers down AGAIN?
    Seeing a lot of un-necessary rage going on :) I am disappointed in not being able to play too, at least I got to play a little bit today, my poor wife's schedule just seems to be hitting all the down time since launch, she just walked in from work, ready to get her play on and the servers go down 2 minutes later, no ETA, LOL. Even she is raging a bit :P

    We are all super excited, and I'm sure a lot of us are pretty tired, and I think we're saying some things that are just off the wall ape shit here. I kind of expected this, and honestly you guys should have been expecting it too. They are going to do the best they can to get stuff stable, the game is great though when you can actually play be thankful for that.

    Take this opportunity to get some food, maybe take a nap, talk to your fam and SO's .

    Relax.

    Don't flame me :)

    Well, it was the first time I played diablo 2, I was at a friends house (who was also playing for the first time). So anyways, we made a char and got pretty much carried to act 3 (normal). By the time we reached mephisto, everyone else had left the room, so it was just us and our weak char with a terrible build against mephisto so we ended up spending about 1.5-2 hours fighting him, dying atleast 50 times in the process, until some random dude joined the room and saved us. Nevertheless, it was a pretty fun experience especially now looking back on it. :)

    Do you still need a key Contemptz666 ?

    I want to tell you almost everything that happened to me because of Diablo ... And so I sit and try to remember all the details of my experience. And I understand that completely connected with this game the soul and spirit. My relationship with Diablo began exactly 10 years ago, May 15, 2002.

    On this day in 2002 I will be 10 years old, and I triped to a hockey game. It turned out that my birthday coincided with the birthday of another player in our team, his name was Andrew. Since we were from a small town, we quickly became best friends. It's funny that we learned about our shared birthday, because both were upset. After all, we have to wait until we go home to celebrate birthdays, receive gifts and eat cake. His parents had just bought him a new computer (Pentium, oh yeah!), And he was hoping to get a game for his computer.
    It is worth noting that at this moment I did not have a computer, because my parents did not think it will be useful, especially because of computer games (You can say that, in the end, I won, and now I have a Web developer). In the summer, I spent a lot of time with Andrew home. We, of course, played Diablo 2 for almost the entire day and sometimes all night ... We secretly made their way down from the bedroom into the room with the computer to keep playing after his parents had gone to bed. We had a system, while one person plays, the other check, do not wake up the parents, and yet looked at the screen. We changed places after the next treatment area.

    When we were traveling together on the bus, we studied the manual for the game. From the sports guys, we rolled up to strange guys who, hunched over, read the manual of video games. We speculated about the heroes who will be most effective in each case, what weapon is better, and so forth. Yes, we have spent so much time living the game. Fantastic memories.

    It makes me think the game Diablo. She was very charming and I loved every second of playing it. I still remember the video. How often you can get a game that is so beautifully creates an overall atmosphere by great rolls? And the sound was quite frightening and fascinating at the same time.

    But in the end, it turned out that my candle is burning brighter than Andrew. He was tired from playing so much that he gave it to me. Eventually, he moved to another country with his family, and I do not see him. I am convinced all summer my parents bought me a computer, and eventually I got it on "school grounds". This was followed by numerous "weary night" for the game Diablo. So I went on to play at every opportunity and managed to hide it from my parents.

    Fast forward two years ago ... May 15, 2010. Andrew congratulated me VKontakte Happy Birthday (I have not talked to him for almost 5 years). We remembered the old days, and began to talk about the upcoming release of Diablo 3, and in the end, we decided to create a new character in Diablo 2, and plunge into the past. But after a while, again, the interest started to wane, and we played less and less. After that, we finally decided that the most appropriate solution would be to wait for a Diablo 3.

    Way to go above and beyond expectations here Dmilia.

    For Diablo 2 it would be making friends with a fellow Barbarian player during a cow run because we were both using 3 socket Cruel Colossus blades. While this guy had a were druid, he was almost always playing a Barb. Oddly enough he would make a barb of pretty much any build, but I don't think he ever played one with Whirlwind and was awesome at playing Barb. So many times I'd join games with him where he'd get into arguments with people that were complete tools. Than they would get into a duel and moments later you would see that he had "slain" them in the chat.
    We would also mf the crap out of everything back in 1.09. At that time I sucked with Sorceress(I dont think I even had static), so he would tank the boss, then let me get the last hit since I had a lot of magic find. Unfortunately he stopped playing after Guild Wars came out and I gotta say I still miss playing Diablo 2 online with him.
    Though one of my biggest one time memories was I had joined at the very end of a cow run so I went through the portal anyways to look for armor to vendor for gold, items to use for crafting, and socketables. About the time I was about to leave the game, wouldn't you know it someone missed a perfect unique shako.
    Also found a perfect Bul Kathos ring during a Countess run along with a Stormshield off a armor rack on way to Countess as well, but during a different ladder.
    Last ladder while doing a Countess run I oddly enough found an Ohm rune off a champion while she dropped crappy runes. I also remember a time before the spam bots.

    if this was worthy just pm me! =P

    Certainly worthy !
